prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent’s records of the content of any such request will be conclusive. The Administrative Agent shall remit a copy of such request to the Lenders. If requested by the
Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any Letter of Credit Request. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed
$25,000,000, (ii) the aggregate Credit Exposure of the Lenders shall not exceed the lesser of (1) the Total Commitments or (2) the Availability, and (iii) unless otherwise approved by the Issuing Bank, the face amount of the
subject Letter of Credit shall not be less than $100,000. The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if (A) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund any amount under this Agreement exists or any Lender is at
such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to such Lender (with cash collateral pledged to the
Issuing Bank in the amount of such defaulting or Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion of the Letter of Credit being deemed satisfactory), (B) any order, judgment, or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms,
purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with
jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, or (C) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one
or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally. 

(c)                
Expiration Date.   Each Letter of Credit shall expire upon the earlier to occur of (i) one year from the date issuance, subject to a customary one year extension “evergreen” provision, or (ii) not later than the
close of business on the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date unless (1) all the Lenders have approved such expiry date, or (2) the Borrower agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent no later than sixty
(60) days prior to the Maturity Date cash collateral in an amount equal to the undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit, with the Borrower hereby irrevocably requesting a 

  
 30 







 
Borrowing of an ABR Loan to fund such cash collateral payment in the event the Borrower does not deliver such cash collateral to the Administrative Agent on the due date thereof. With respect to
any Letter of Credit containing an “evergreen” provision to extend the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may give notice of nonrenewal of such Letter of Credit and, if the
Borrower does not at any time want such Letter of Credit to be renewed, the Borrower will so notify the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank at least fifteen (15) calendar days before the Issuing Bank is required to notify the beneficiary
of such Letter of Credit or any advising bank of such nonrenewal pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(d)                
Participations.   By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby
grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In
consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement
made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and
agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of
any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever, provided no
Lender shall be required to acquire a participation in a Letter of Credit to the extent same would result in such Lender’s Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment. 

(e)                
Reimbursement.   If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not
later than 12:00 noon, Boston, Massachusetts time, on the Business Day that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt;
provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to
the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify
each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, 

  
 31 







 
the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of
any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to
such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated
above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

(f)                
Obligations Absolute.   The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other
document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related
Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in
the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing
thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the
Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing
Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The Borrower shall take action to avoid and mitigate the amount of any damages claimed against
the Issuing Bank, including by enforcing its rights against the beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit, and any claim by the Borrower under or in connection with any Letter of Credit shall be reduced by an amount


  
 32 







 
equal to the sum of (x) the amount (if any) saved by the Borrower as a result of the breach or alleged wrongful conduct complained of; and (y) the amount (if any) of the loss that would
have been avoided had the Borrower taken all reasonable steps to mitigate any loss, and in case of a claim of wrongful dishonor, by specifically and timely authorizing the Issuing Bank to effect a cure. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof,
the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such
documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of
Credit. 

(g)                
Disbursement Procedures.   The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such
notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 

(h)                Interim
Interest.   If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each
day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse
such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued
on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(i)                
Replacement of the Issuing Bank.   The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to
Section 2.11(d). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be
issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such 

  
 33 







 
successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall
continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

(j)        Cash Collateralization.   If any Event of
Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the
Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any; provided that the obligation to
deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower
described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The
Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole
discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by
the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC
Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Required Lenders), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, provided that, to the extent such obligations
are owed to Lenders, such application shall be on a pro rata basis. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 

Section 2.06    Funding of Borrowings. 

(a)        Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it
hereunder on the proposed date thereof pursuant to the Loan Request by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Boston, Massachusetts time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose
by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like
funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in Boston, Massachusetts, or wire transferred to such other account or in such manner as may be designated by the Borrower in the applicable


  
 34 







 
Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of a LC Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the
Issuing Bank. 
 (b)        Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may, after giving notice to the
Borrower of its intent to advance funds on behalf of a Lender, assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the
Borrower a corresponding amount. The Borrower shall have the right to withdraw its request for such Borrowing upon receipt of any such notice from the Administrative Agent. In the event the Administrative Agent does advance funds on behalf of a
Lender, and such Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater
of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the corresponding
Loan made to the Borrower. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 

Section 2.07    Interest Elections. 

(a)        Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in
the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to
continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which
case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans,
which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b)        To make an
election pursuant to this Section, the Lead Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.04 if the Borrower were requesting a
Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the
Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in the form of a Borrowing Request (with proper election made for an interest rate election only) and signed by the Borrower. 

  
 35 







 (c)        Each
telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i)        the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request
applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and
(iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 

(ii)        the effective date of the election made pursuant to such
Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii)        whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR
Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv)        if the
resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be
deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

(d)        Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election
Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e)        If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest
Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an
ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Lead Borrower, then, so long as an Event of
Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period
applicable thereto. 
 Section 2.08    Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments. 

 (a)        Unless previously terminated by the Administrative
Agent or Borrower in accordance with this Agreement, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 

(b)        The Borrower may only reduce the Commitments, without the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders, in the following circumstances: the Borrower may from time to time reduce the Commitments, provided that each reduction in the Commitments shall be in an amount that is at
least $25,000,000 

  
 36 







 
and an integral multiple of $5,000,000, and the Commitments may not be reduced to less than $50,000,000 unless the Commitments are reduced to zero and terminated. The Borrower shall not reduce
the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the total Credit Exposures would exceed the Total Commitment. After any reduction in the Commitments, the Borrower’s
option to increase the Commitments provided in Section 2.08(d) shall terminate. 

(c)        The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any
election to reduce the Commitments under Section 2.08(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any
notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction in the
Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. A reduction in the outstanding principal balance shall not constitute a reduction in the Commitments without the notice required above being
delivered to Administrative Agent as set forth above. 

(d)        Provided no Default or Event of Default shall then be in
existence, the Borrower shall have the right, on one or more occasions, to elect to increase the Total Commitment; provided, however, that (i) the amount of each such increase shall not be less than Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000) or in increments of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) in excess thereof, (ii) the aggregate amount of all such increases shall not cause the Total Commitment to exceed Five Hundred Million Dollars ($500,000,000), and
(iii) any such requests for an increase in the Total Commitment must be received at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the end of the Initial Term. Any such increase in the Total Commitment shall be exercised by the Lead Borrower by
written notice to the Administrative Agent, which election shall designate the requested increase in the Total Commitment; provided further, however, at Lead Borrower’s option, Lead Borrower may request that any such requested increase
in the amount of the Total Commitments be effected through the addition of one or more term loan commitments (and, in such event, all references in this Section 2.08 to any increase in the Commitments (or any Revolving Commitment), as
and to the extent applicable at any time, shall be deemed and construed to mean and refer to any such term loan commitment in the amount of such increase, mutatis mutandis), subject further, however, (1) to the continued
applicability of the terms and provisions of this Section 2.08 and (2) in addition to the items specified below, the prior execution and delivery by the Credit Parties of such other and further agreements, instruments, and documents
which Administrative Agent may then require in its sole but reasonable determination to effect any such term loan commitment in the amount of such increase. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative
Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders), and each Lender shall endeavor to
respond as promptly as possible within such time period. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to 

  
 37 







 
increase its Commitment (which decision shall be in its sole discretion) and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested
increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made
hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to the extent that the existing
Lenders decline to increase their Commitments, or decline to increase their Commitments to the amount requested by the Lead Borrower, the Arranger, in consultation with the Lead Borrower, will use its reasonable efforts to arrange for other
financial institutions to become a Lender hereunder and to issue commitments in an amount equal to the amount of the increase in the Total Commitment requested by the Lead Borrower and not accepted by the existing Lenders, and the Borrower may also
invite additional lenders approved by the Administrative Agent (provided that no approval of the Administrative Agent shall be required if such new lender is an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) to become Lenders, in each case, pursuant to
a joinder agreement (each a “Lender Joinder Agreement”) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. If the Total Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of each Lender’s increased Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase (with such increase being pro rata among existing Lenders choosing to increase their Commitments) and the Increase Effective Date and Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed modified,
without further action, to reflect the revised Commitments and Applicable Percentages of the Lenders. As a condition precedent to such increase, (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as
of the Increase Effective Date signed by an Authorized Officer of the Lead Borrower (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (y) certifying that, before and after
giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 6 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except that in the case of any representation and warranty
qualified by materiality, they shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and
correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.08(d), the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.04 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent
statements furnished to the Administrative Agent, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, (ii) the Borrower and each new Lender shall have executed and delivered a Lender Joinder Agreement and such other
instruments, documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably have requested; (iii) the Borrower shall have paid such arrangement fees to the Arranger as the Lead Borrower and the Arranger may agree; (iv) if requested by
the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders an 

  
 38 







 
opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, from counsel to the Borrowers reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and dated such date; and
(v) no Default or Event of Default exists. Existing Lenders may, as necessary, receive a prepayment of amounts of the Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any
revised Applicable Percentages arising from any non-ratable increase in the Commitments under this Section, which prepayment shall be accomplished by the pro rata funding required of the Lender(s) issuing new or increased Commitments. 

Section 2.09    Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a)        The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay
(i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date, (ii) subject to Section 2.05, to the Issuing Bank the then unpaid principal amount of
each LC Disbursement on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date set forth in Section 2.05(e), and (iii) subject to Section 2.04, to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on
the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date that is ten (10) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. At the
request of each Lender, the Loans made by such Lender shall be evidenced by a Note payable to such Lender in the amount of such Lender’s Commitment. 

(b)        Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

 (c)        The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in
which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to
each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d)        The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (b) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent
to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

Section 2.10    Prepayment of Loans. 

(a)        The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from
time to time to prepay (including in connection with a partial release of any Mortgaged Property), without penalty, any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section, and subject to
Section 2.15, if applicable. 

  
 39 







 (b)        The Lead
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar
Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Los Angeles, California time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Los Angeles, California time, one
Business Day before the date of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Los Angeles, California time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each
partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000.00 and not less than $500,000.00. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments
shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. 

(c)        If at any time the total Credit Exposure of the Lenders
exceeds the lesser of the Total Commitment or the Availability, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess within ten (10) days after such occurrence, with any such payment being applied (i) first to the
outstanding Revolving Loans, (ii) second to the outstanding Swingline Loans, and (iii) third to cash collateralize any LC Exposure. 

(d)        In connection with the prepayment of any Loan prior to the
expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any applicable expenses pursuant to Section 2.15. 

Section 2.11    Fees. 

(a)        The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender the following unused fee (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) which shall accrue during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to, but excluding, the date on which such Commitment terminates, at
a rate per annum equal to (1) 0.25% per annum on the actual daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender if Usage is less than 50% of such Lender’s Commitment, and (2) 0.20% per annum on the actual daily unused
amount of the Commitment of such Lender if Usage is greater than or equal to 50% of such Lender’s Commitment. Unused Commitment Fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable
on the third Business Day following such last day and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any Unused Commitment Fees accrued as of the date on which
the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All Unused Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) and
shall be based on the then existing Commitments of the Lenders. 

  
 40 







 (b)        The Borrower
agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate provided for Eurodollar Loans on the actual
daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the later of the date on which such
Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit
as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral satisfactory to the Issuing Bank shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments
in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.18(a)(iv) with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuing Bank for its own account, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a
fronting fee, in the amount of 0.125% of the face amount of each Letter of Credit (but not less than $500.00 for each Letter of Credit). Participation fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each
year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date of this Agreement; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate
and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Fronting fees shall be payable in full in advance on the date of the issuance, or renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, and are not
refundable. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for
the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(c)        The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent,
for its own account fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed to upon in the fee letter executed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

(d)        All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due,
in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees, participation fees, and extension fees to the Lenders. Fees paid under this Agreement shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 

Section 2.12    Interest. 

(a)        The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear
interest at the lesser of (x) the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, or (y) the Maximum Rate. 

  
 41 







 (b)        The Loans
comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the lesser of (a) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate, or (b) the Maximum Rate. 

(c)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if any principal
of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, after applicable grace periods, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after
as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, the lesser of (x) 4% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section, or
(y) the Maximum Rate, or (ii) in the case of any other amount, the lesser of (x) 4% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section, or (y) the Maximum Rate; and (B) after the
occurrence of any Event of Default, at the option of the Administrative Agent, or if the Administrative Agent is directed in writing by the Required Lenders to do so, the Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of
(x) 4% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section, or (y) the Maximum Rate (the foregoing increased interest rate, as applicable, referred to as the “Default
Rate”). 
 (d)        Accrued interest on each Loan shall
be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon the Maturity Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of
any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment,
and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e)        All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and twelve (12) 30-day months, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate
shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(f)        If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment
to the financial statements of Parent or Borrower or for any other reason, Parent, Borrower, Administrative Agent, or the Lenders reasonably determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by Parent and Borrower as of any applicable
date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher or lower pricing for such period, then (A) if the proper calculation results in a higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall
immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, within three (3) Business Days after demand by Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of
an order for relief with respect to any Credit Party under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by Administrative Agent or any Lender), an 

  
 42 







 
amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period, and (B) if the
proper calculation results in a lower pricing for such period, Borrower shall receive a credit or refund of any overpayment promptly after such determination. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the
case may be, under Section 2.12(c) or under ARTICLE VII (in each instance to the extent the Borrower is in violation of Section 5.02(a) or such restatement of or other adjustment or recalculation otherwise constitutes
an Event of Default hereunder). To the extent that Administrative Agent makes any determination under this Section 2.12(f) based on computations provided by anyone other than Borrower, Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of same to
the Borrower prior to the demand for excess interest and fees. 
 Section 2.13    Alternate Rate
of Interest.   If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: 

(a)        the Administrative Agent determines (which determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 

(b)        the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required
Lenders that (i) the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such
Borrowing for such Interest Period and (ii) such fact is generally applicable to its loans of this type to similar borrowers, as evidenced by a certification from such Lenders, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lead
Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Lead Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any
Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. 

Section 2.14    Increased Costs. 

(a)        If any Change in Law shall: 

(i)        impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special
deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing
Bank; or 

  
 43 







 (ii)        impose on
any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any taxes or other condition (other than one relating to Excluded Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any
Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b)        If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any
Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank
or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank
or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c)        A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth
the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

(d)        Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing
Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or
the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive,
then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

  
 44 







 Section 2.15    Break Funding Payments.
  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default, (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar
Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be
revoked under Section 2.10(b)), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Lead Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19,
then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined
by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the
period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the
amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other
banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

Section 2.16    Taxes. 

(a)        Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of
the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may
be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b)        In addition, the
Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(c)        The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent,
Issuing Bank, and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with
respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, 

  
 45 







 
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that the Borrower receives ten
(10) days prior written notice from the Administrative Agent that it intends to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, the Issuing Bank or by
the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d)        As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e)        Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from
or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Lead Borrower (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of
FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably
requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Lead
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA
or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

Section 2.17    Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a)        The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made
by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., Los Angeles, California time, on the date when
due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its main offices in Cleveland, Ohio, except for 

  
 46 







 
payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and
9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. If the Administrative Agent receives a payment for the account of a Lender prior to 1:00 p.m., Los Angeles, California time, such payment must be delivered to the Lender on the same
day and if it is not so delivered due to the fault of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Lender entitled to the payment interest thereon for each day after payment should have been received by the Lender pursuant
hereto until the Lender receives payment, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of
any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 

(b)        If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder,
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 

(c)        If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or
counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate
amount of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of
principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline
Loans, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that
any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in
the amount of such participation. 

  
 47 







 (d)        Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Lead Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such
payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In
such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or
the Issing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 

(e)        If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to
be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.06(b) or 2.17(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

Section 2.18    Defaulting Lenders. 

(a)        Adjustments.   Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i)        Waivers and Amendments.   That Defaulting
Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Credit Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.02. 

(ii)        Reallocation of Payments.   Any payment
of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to ARTICLE VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available
to Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that
Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by
Administrative Agent or requested by the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any outstanding and undrawn Letter of Credit;
fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists other than a Default or Event of Default resulting directly from the Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement), to the
funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof 

  
 48 







 
as required by this Credit Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit
account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Credit Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the non-Defaulting Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as a
result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit
Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists other than a Default or Event of Default resulting directly from the Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit
Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if: (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of
which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share; and (y) such Loans or LC Disbursements were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be
applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or
other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such
Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii)        Certain Fees.   A Defaulting Lender:
(x) shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Fee pursuant to Section 2.11 for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been
required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender); and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.11. 

(iv)        Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce LC
Exposure.   During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline
Loans, the “ Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided, that: (A) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at
the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (B) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline
Loans shall not exceed the 

  
 49 







 
positive difference, if any, of: (1) the Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender; minus (2) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender. 

(b)        Defaulting Lender Cure.   If the Lead
Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date
specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Defaulting Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans
of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon such Defaulting Lender
will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no cessation in status as Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising during the period that such
Lender was a Defaulting Lender. 
 Section 2.19    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of
Lenders. 
 (a)        Each Lender and the Issuing Bank will
notify the Lead Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle such Person to compensation pursuant to Sections 2.14 and 2.16 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and
determines to request such compensation, provided that such Person shall not be liable for the failure to provide such notice. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any such Person or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall use reasonable efforts to avoid or
minimize the amounts payable, including, without limitation, the designation of a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder or the assignment of its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the
case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender or Issuing Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the Issuing Bank. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b)        If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund
Loans hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to 

  
 50 







 
assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to
an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if
a Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC
Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of
all other amounts), and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 Section 2.20    Extension.

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

Section 3.03 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts.   The Transactions (a) to the actual knowledge

the appropriate time for such filings under applicable securities laws, (b) to the actual knowledge of the Borrower, will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of any Credit Party
or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon any Credit Party or any of the Borrower’s
Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Credit Party or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of

(a)        Subject to Liens permitted by Section 6.01,
each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except for minor defects in title and title defects disclosed to Lenders that do not interfere with
its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes. 

(b)        Subject to the property conditions reports obtained by the
Borrower or a Subsidiary at the time of acquisition with respect to each Real Property, all components of all improvements included within the Real Property owned or leased, as lessee, by any Credit Party, including, without limitation, the roofs
and structural elements thereof and the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing, electrical, mechanical, sewer, waste water, storm water, paving and parking equipment, systems and facilities included therein, are in good working order and
repair, subject to such exceptions which are not reasonably likely to have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. All water, gas, electrical, steam, compressed air, telecommunication, sanitary and storm sewage lines and systems and other
similar systems serving the Real Property owned or leased by any Credit Party are installed and operating and are sufficient to enable the Real Property to continue to be used and operated in the manner currently being used and operated, and no
Credit Party has any knowledge of any factor or condition that reasonably could be expected to result in the termination or material impairment of the furnishing thereof, subject to such exceptions which are not likely to have, in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect. No improvement or portion thereof is dependent for its access, operation or utility on any land, building or other improvement not included in the Real Property owned or leased by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, other than
for access provided pursuant to a recorded easement or other right of way establishing the right of such access subject to such exceptions which are not likely to have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

(c)        To each Credit Party’s actual knowledge, all
franchises, licenses, authorizations, rights of use, governmental approvals and permits (including all certificates of occupancy and building permits) required to have been issued by Governmental Authority to enable all Real Property owned or leased
by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to be operated as then being operated have been lawfully issued and are in full force and effect, other than those which the failure to obtain in the aggregate could not be reasonably expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. No Credit Party is in violation of the terms or conditions of any such franchises, licenses, authorizations, rights of use, governmental approvals and permits, which violation would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 (d)        None of the Credit Parties has
received any notice or has any actual knowledge, of any pending, threatened or contemplated condemnation proceeding affecting any Real Property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any part thereof, or any proposed termination
or impairment of any parking (except as contemplated in any approved expansion approved by Administrative Agent), at any such owned or leased Real Property or of any sale or other disposition of any Real Property owned or leased by Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries or any part thereof in lieu of condemnation, which in the aggregate, are reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 54 







 (e)        Except for
events or conditions not reasonably likely to have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (i) no portion of any Real Property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has suffered any material damage by fire or other
casualty loss which has not heretofore been completely repaired and restored to its condition prior to such casualty, and (ii) no portion of any Real Property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is located in a special flood
hazard area as designated by any federal Government Authorities or any area identified by the insurance industry or other experts acceptable to the Administrative Agent as an area that is a high probable earthquake or seismic area, except as set
forth on Schedule 3.05(e). 
 (f)        There are no
Persons operating or managing any Mortgaged Property other than the Borrower and the Management Company pursuant to (i) the management agreements delivered to Administrative Agent as of the Effective Date, and (ii) such other management
agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. To Borrower’s actual knowledge, except as disclosed on the Current Survey no improvement or portion thereof, or any other part of any Mortgaged Property, is
dependent for its access, operation or utility on any land, building or other improvement not included in such Mortgaged Property, other than for access provided pursuant to a recorded easement or other right of way establishing the right of such
access. 
 Section 3.06    Intellectual Property.   To the actual knowledge of
each Credit Party, such Credit Party owns, or is licensed to use, all patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by such Credit Party does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any
such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the actual knowledge of each Credit Party, there are no material slogans or other advertising devices, projects,
processes, methods, substances, parts or components, or other material now employed, or now contemplated to be employed, by any Credit Party with respect to the operation of any Real Property with the Lenders acknowledging that each Mortgaged
Property will be operated by Extra Space Management, Inc. under the “Extra Space” brand and marketing program and will utilize such Management Company’s “processes” and “methods”, and no claim or litigation
regarding any slogan or advertising device, project, process, method, substance, part or component or other material employed, or now contemplated to be employed by any Credit Party, is pending or threatened, the outcome of which could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower’s Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect

extent such written order, contract or investigation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 

(vi)        none of the Credit Parties are subject to any pending
legal proceeding alleging the violation of any Environmental Law nor, to the actual knowledge of each Credit Party, are any such proceedings threatened, in either case, except to the extent any such proceedings could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect; 
 (vii)        neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the actual knowledge of each Credit Party, any predecessor of any Credit Party, nor to the actual knowledge of each Credit Party, any owner of Real Property leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
have filed any notice under federal, state or local, territorial or foreign law indicating past or present treatment, storage, or disposal of or reporting a Release of Hazardous Material into the environment, in each case, except to the extent such
Release of Hazardous Material could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 

(viii)        none of the operations of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or, to the actual knowledge of each Credit Party, of any owner of premises currently leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or of any tenant of premises currently leased from Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, involve or
previously involved the generation, transportation, treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous waste, as defined under 40 C.F.R. Part 261.3 (in effect as of the date of this Agreement) or any state, local, territorial or foreign equivalent, in
violation of Environmental Laws; and

which any violation of the above tests shall occur in which to cure such violation, to the extent such violation can be cured with a cash payment, which 10-day cure period shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any other cure period provided
for herein that may affect this Section 5.02. It shall be an Event of Default if Borrower fails to make such a prepayment not later than ten (10) Business Days after notice from the Administrative Agent to the Lead Borrower

 63 







 (c)        within five
(5) Business Days after the occurrence of any ERISA Event that, alone or together with any other ERISA Events that have occurred, could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount
exceeding $10,000,000.00; and 
 (d)        any other development
that results in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Each notice delivered under
this Section shall be accompanied by a statement of a Financial Officer or other executive officer of Borrower setting forth the details of the event or development requiring such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect
thereto. 
 Section 5.04    Existence; Conduct of Business.   The Borrower will,
and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises material to the
conduct of its business, except to the extent the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any merger, consolidation,
liquidation or dissolution permitted under Section 6.01 and shall not apply to the real estate investment trust status of the Parent until such time as the Parent has made its initial election to be treated as a real estate investment trust
under the Code. Each Person that is a Borrower must at all times be a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent or a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Lead Borrower. 

Section 5.05    Payment of Obligations.   The Borrower will, and will cause each of

being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (b) the Borrower or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and (c) the failure to make payment pending such
contest could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 5.06    Maintenance of Properties; Insurance. 

(a)        The Borrower will (i) keep and maintain all property
material to the conduct of the operations of the Mortgaged Properties in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and (ii) maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance in such amounts
and against such risks as are set forth in the schedule provided pursuant to Section 3.13, with Administrative Agent named as loss payee and a beneficiary of such insurance on substantially similar policies and programs as are acceptable
to Administrative Agent. 
 (b)        The Borrower shall maintain
the following insurance coverages for each of the Mortgaged Properties in the Pool: 

(i)        An all-risk policy of permanent property insurance
insuring the Mortgaged Property against all risks that are commonly covered under real property insurance except those permitted by the Administrative Agent in writing to be excluded from coverage thereunder. 

  
 64 







 (ii)        A boiler and
machinery insurance policy covering loss or damage to all portions of the Mortgaged Property comprised of air-conditioning and heating systems, other pressure vessels, machinery, boilers or high pressure piping. 

(iii)        An all-risk policy of insurance covering loss of
earnings and/or rents from the Mortgaged Property in the event that the Mortgaged Property is not available for use or occupancy due to casualty, damage or destruction required to be covered by the policies of insurance described in (i) and
(ii) above. 
 (iv)        Commercial general liability, auto
liability, umbrella or excess liability and worker’s compensation insurance against claims for bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the Mortgaged Property in an amount and containing terms reasonably acceptable to
the Administrative Agent. 
 (v)        Such other insurance
against other insurable hazards, risks or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of owners and premises similarly situated, due regard being given to the financial condition of the Borrower, the height and type of the
Mortgaged Property, its construction, location, use and occupancy. 

(vi)        All required insurance will be written on forms
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and by companies having a Best’s Insurance Guide Rating of not less than A or A+ and which are otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and such insurance (other than third party liability
insurance) shall be written or endorsed so that all losses are payable to the Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders. The original policies evidencing such insurance shall be delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent and held by the Administrative Agent, unless Administrative Agent expressly consents to accept insurance certificates instead. Each such policy shall expressly prohibit cancellation of insurance without thirty (30) days’ written
notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower agrees to furnish due proof of payment of the premiums for all such insurance to Administrative Agent promptly after each such payment is made and in any case at least fifteen (15) days before
payment becomes delinquent. 
 (c)        The Borrower will pay and
discharge all taxes, assessments, maintenance charges, permit fees, impact fees, development fees, capital repair charges, utility reservations and standby fees and all other similar impositions of every kind and character charged, levied, assessed
or imposed against any interest in any Mortgaged Property owned by it, as they become payable and before they become delinquent and that, if not paid, could result in a Material Adverse Effect before the same shall become delinquent or in default,
except where (a) the validity or amount thereof is being contested 

  
 65 







 
in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (b) the Borrower has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and (c) the failure to make payment
pending such contest could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower shall furnish receipts evidencing proof of such payment to the Administrative Agent promptly after payment and before delinquency. 

(d)        All proceeds of insurance with respect to any Mortgaged
Property shall be paid to Administrative Agent and, at Administrative Agent’s option, be applied to Borrower’s Obligations or released, in whole or in part, to pay for the actual cost of repair, restoration, rebuilding or replacement
(collectively, “Cost To Repair”). If the Cost To Repair does not exceed thirty-five percent (35%) of the Appraised Value of the subject Mortgaged Property, provided no Event of Default is then in existence, Administrative Agent
shall release so much of the insurance proceeds as may be required to pay for the actual Cost to Repair in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 5.06(e) below. 

(e)        If Administrative Agent elects or is required to release
insurance proceeds, Administrative Agent may impose, reasonable conditions on such release which shall include, but not be limited to, the following: 

(i)        prior written approval by Administrative Agent, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed of plans, specifications, cost estimates, contracts and bonds for the restoration or repair of the loss or damage; 

(ii)        waivers of lien, architect’s certificates,
contractor’s sworn statements and other evidence of costs, payments and completion as Agent may reasonably require; 

(iii)        if the Cost To Repair does not exceed $500,000.00, the
funds to pay therefor shall be released to Borrower. Otherwise, funds shall be released upon final completion of the Repair Work, unless Borrower requests earlier funding, in which event partial monthly disbursements equal to 90% of the value of the
work completed shall be made prior to final completion of the repair, restoration or replacement and the balance of the disbursements shall be made upon full completion and the receipt by Administrative Agent of satisfactory evidence of payment and
release of all liens; 
 (iv)        determination by
Administrative Agent that the undisbursed balance of such proceeds on deposit with Administrative Agent, together with additional funds deposited for the purpose, shall be at least sufficient to pay for the remaining Cost To Repair, free and clear
of all liens and claims for lien; 
 (v)        all work to comply
with the standards, quality of construction and Legal Requirements applicable to the original construction of the Mortgaged Property; and 

  
 66 







 (vi)        in
Administrative Agent’s good faith judgment the Repair Work is likely to be completed at least three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date. 

(f)        If there is any condemnation for public use of a Mortgaged
Property or of any Collateral, the awards on account thereof shall be paid to Administrative Agent and shall be applied to Borrower’s obligations, or at Administrative Agent’s discretion released to Borrower. If, in the case of a partial
taking or a temporary taking, in the sole judgment of Administrative Agent the effect of such taking is such that there has not been a material and adverse impairment of the viability of the Mortgaged Property or the value of the Collateral, so long
as no Default exists Administrative Agent shall release awards on account of such taking to Borrower if such awards are sufficient (or amounts sufficient are otherwise made available) to repair or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition
reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent subject to the requirements of Section 5.06(e). 

Section 5.07    Books and Records; Inspection Rights. 

(a)        The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities. 

(b)        The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and
condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested. 

Section 5.08    Compliance with Laws.   The Borrower will, and will cause each of
its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions) applicable to it or its property, except where the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 5.09    Use of Proceeds.   The proceeds of the Loans will be used for
acquisition, acquisition fees and expenses, and financing of the Mortgaged Properties and other real properties to be acquired by Subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower and other general working capital purposes. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will
be used, whether directly or indirectly, for financing, funding or completing the hostile acquisition of publicly traded Persons or for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations U and X. 

Section 5.10    Fiscal Year.   Borrower shall maintain as its fiscal year the twelve
(12) month period ending on December 31 of each year. 
 Section 5.11    Environmental
Matters. 

  
 67 







 (a)        Borrower
shall comply and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each Real Property owned or leased by such parties to comply in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws currently or hereafter in effect, except to the extent
noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b)        If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders at any
time have a reasonable basis to believe that there may be a material violation of any Environmental Law related to any Real Property owned or leased by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or Real Property adjacent to such Real Property, which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then Borrower agrees, upon request from the Administrative Agent (which request may be delivered at the option of Administrative Agent or at the direction of Required Lenders), to provide the
Administrative Agent, at the Borrower’s expense, with such reports, certificates, engineering studies or other written material or data as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably require so as to reasonably satisfy the
Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders that any Credit Party or Real Property owned or leased by them is in material compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws. 

(c)        Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, take such Remedial Action or other action as required by Environmental Law or any Governmental Authority except to the extent the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 (d)        If the Borrower fails to timely take, or to
diligently and expeditiously proceed to complete in a timely fashion, any action described in this Section, the Administrative Agent may, after notice to the Lead Borrower, with the consent of the Required Lenders, make advances or payments toward
the performance or satisfaction of the same, but shall in no event be under any obligation to do so. All sums so advanced or paid by the Administrative Agent (including reasonable counsel and consultant and investigation and laboratory fees and
expenses, and fines or other penalty payments) and all sums advanced or paid in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation or proceeding relating thereto, will become due and payable from the Borrower ten (10) Business Days
after demand, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date any such sums are so advanced or paid by the Administrative Agent until the date any such sums are repaid by the Borrower. Promptly upon request, the Borrower will execute and
deliver such instruments as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to permit the Administrative Agent to take any such action, and as the Administrative Agent may require to secure all sums so advanced or paid by the Administrative
Agent. If a Lien is filed against the Mortgaged Property by any Governmental Authority resulting from the need to expend or the actual expending of monies arising from an action or omission, whether intentional or unintentional, of the Borrower or
for which any Borrower is responsible, resulting in the Releasing of any Hazardous Material into the waters or onto land located within or without the State where the Mortgaged Property is located, then the Borrower will, within thirty
(30) days from the date that the Borrower is first given notice that such Lien has been placed against the Mortgaged Property (or within such shorter period of time as may be specified by the Administrative Agent if such Governmental Authority
has 

  
 68 







 
commenced steps to cause the Mortgaged Property to be sold pursuant to such Lien), either (i) pay the claim and remove the Lien, or (ii) furnish a cash deposit, bond or such other
security with respect thereto as is satisfactory in all respects to the Administrative Agent and is sufficient to effect a complete discharge of such Lien on the Mortgaged Property. 

Section 5.12    Property Pool. 

(a)        Mortgaged Properties Generally.   Each
Real Property proposed by the Lead Borrower as Collateral shall meet the requirements of a Mortgaged Property, shall not be subject to a Lien in any manner, other than Permitted Encumbrances, and shall meet the following requirements:

Lender’s expense for purposes of determining Pool Value, such updated Appraisals to be obtained no more frequently than once per annum. Notwithstanding the previous limitation, Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation,
in its sole discretion, to order updated Appraisals of the Mortgaged Properties at the Borrower’s expense in connection with any requested extension of the Maturity Date in accordance with the terms hereof, or at any time after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

(iii)        a final certificate of occupancy, or the local
equivalent has been issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority for all of the improvements on the Real Property; 

(iv)        no material deferred maintenance and no material capital
improvements are required or if required, adequate reserves, pledged to the Agent, are made therefor to continue operating as a self-storage property (or such other use as the Required Lenders may approve), as determined by an architectural or
engineering report approved by the Administrative Agent; 

(v)        (1) the Administrative Agent must have received Phase I
environmental reports, together with an acceptable reliance letter if required by Agent, from third-party independent consultants for each Mortgaged Property in, or to be added to, the Pool that do not disclose any adverse material environmental
conditions and specifying any further investigation or remedial work required to be undertaken, along with acceptable property condition reports (with appropriate reliance letters) and property zoning reports, (2) the owner of

(if applicable) with a reliance letter if required by Agent, a rent roll, and all other documents required for Collateral as the Administrative Agent may require (which will include, at a minimum, proof of casualty and liability insurance complying
with this Agreement (together with an acceptable reliance letter(s)) if required by Agent, central and local Uniform Commercial Code searches, purchase agreement, and a Compliance Certificate) and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, and (4) the Mortgaged Property owner must have joined in, and assumed all obligations of a “Borrower” under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent; 
 (vi)    the Mortgaged Property is otherwise approved by the
Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders in their sole discretion. As of the Effective Date the Real Property assets to be included in the Pool are listed on Schedule 5.12 attached hereto. 

(b)        Additional Mortgaged Properties.   From
time to time during the term of this Agreement following the Lead Borrower’s written request, the Administrative Agent shall accept one or more Real Properties into the Pool as Collateral upon the satisfaction of the following conditions, in a
manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent:

satisfied all of requirements set forth in the definition of Mortgaged Property and in Section 5.12(a) as to such real estate.

(iv)        The Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Administrative
Agent for all reasonable legal fees and expenses and other costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the additional Mortgaged Property. 

(v)        The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower prompt
written notice of its determination with respect to the admission or rejection of any Real Property as a Mortgaged Property. To the extent that an Real Property does not 

  
 70 







 
meet the requirements to qualify as a Mortgaged Property, as defined, the Borrower may nevertheless request that such Real Property be included as a Mortgaged Property and the Required Lenders
may, in their sole and absolute discretion, agree to the acceptance of such Real Property as an additional Mortgaged Property. 

(c)        Partial Releases.   The Borrower may obtain the
release of any Mortgaged Property (the “Release Tract”) from the liens and security interests of the Loan Documents if it satisfies the following terms and conditions: 

(i)        The Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent with
such request an updated Borrowing Base Certificate prepared using the financial statements of the Borrower most recently provided or required to be provided to the Administrative Agent under Section 5.01, adjusted in the best good faith
estimate of the Borrower, to give effect to the proposed release and demonstrating that no Default or Event of Default shall exist after giving effect to such release, and after taking into account any prepayment of outstanding Loans necessary to
maintain compliance with the financial covenants herein.

incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with such partial release, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, recording fees and any title policy endorsement fees. 

(v)        Subject to the satisfaction of the provisions of this
Section, at the Borrower’s request, the Borrower owning the Release Tract and which has no other ownership interest in any of the remaining Mortgaged Properties shall be released from all obligations under the Loan Documents, including without
limitation, further payment and performance of the Loans on the Partial Release Date, other than pending obligations under the Environmental Indemnity.

shall at all times maintain no fewer than fifteen (15) Mortgaged Properties with an aggregate Pool Value of no less than $100,000,000.00 in the Pool at all times. 

Section 5.13    Further Assurances.   At any time upon the request of the
Administrative Agent, each Credit Party will, promptly and at its expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver such further documents and perform such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Loans made

Borrower in a particular jurisdiction.

Strategic Storage Advisor II, LLC or Strategic Storage Property Management II, LLC or their affiliates or any successor thereof shall be subordinated to the Loans. At any time that any Default or Event of Default exists under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, then in any of such event(s), no Credit Party may pay any property or asset management fees or similar fees to any other Credit Party or to any Subsidiary or Affiliate; provided, however, such fees shall accrue and become
payable upon the cure of the Default or Event of Default. All such parties shall execute subordination agreements in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent with respect to such fees.

 ARTICLE VIII 

The Administrative Agent 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In the event of
conflicting instructions or notices given to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent and any Lender, the Borrower is hereby directed and shall rely conclusively on the instruction or notice given by the Administrative Agent. 

The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as
any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or
other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not have any
duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has
occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative
Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth
herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent
or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written
notice thereof is given to 

  
 81 







 
the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of
the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any
condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees that, in fulfilling its duties hereunder, it will
use the same standard of care it utilizes in servicing loans for its own account. 
 The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.
The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or
experts. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any
one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions
of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities
provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, and the Lead Borrower, and may be removed by the Required Lenders in the event of the
Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any such resignation or removal may at the Administrative Agent’s option also constitute the Administrative Agent’s resignation as Issuing Bank. Upon any such resignation
or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the approval of Borrower (provided no Default has occurred and is continuing), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and, if
applicable, Issuing Bank (subject to the provisions of Section 2.05(i)). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation or is removed, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Bank, which shall be
a Lender, or a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as 

  
 82 







 
Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Bank, hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Bank, and the retiring Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Bank, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor
Administrative Agent for its own behalf shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it
was acting as Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank. If the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall also resign as the Issuing Bank, such successor Administrative Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit,
if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Issuing Bank, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Administrative Agent with respect to such Letters of
Credit. The Administrative Agent shall cooperate with any successor Administrative Agent in fulfilling its duties hereunder. 

Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or
any other Lender or the Issuing Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or the Issuing Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not
taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Bank, or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to
enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan
Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a
Loan or issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default
at the time. 
 (b)        Neither this Agreement nor any provision
hereof may be waived, amended or modified, nor may any Default or Event of Default be waived, except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) reduce or increase (except in accordance with Section 2.08(d)) the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,
(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of
payment of the principal 

  
 84 







 
amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of
expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Sections 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the
written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Applicable Percentage” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders
required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) release any Credit Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents or release
any Collateral, except as specifically provided for herein, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) subordinate the Loans or any Collateral without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) waive or modify any conditions of
extending the Loans set forth in Section 2.20 without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ix) consent to the Collateral securing any other Indebtedness, without the written consent of each Lender, or
(x) extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Maturity Date, without the consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender, respectively. 

(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no
Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the
consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, nor shall there be any waiver, forgiveness or reduction of the principal amount of any
Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender, without the consent of such Lender; and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more
adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

(d)        Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the
Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above: (1) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of
Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein; and (2) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency
proceeding. Administrative Agent may, after consultation with the Borrower, agree to the modification of any term of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to correct any printing, stenographic or clerical errors or omissions that are
inconsistent with the terms hereof. 
 (e)        If Administrative
Agent shall request the consent of any Lender to any amendment, change, waiver, discharge, termination, consent or exercise of rights 

  
 85 







 
covered by this Credit Agreement, and not receive such consent or denial thereof in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the making of such request by Administrative Agent, as the case
may be, such Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent to the request. 

(f)        Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary none of the Lenders or the existing Borrower will be required to execute assumption or amendment documents to add a Person as a Borrower or as a Guarantor. If Real Property assets are added to the Pool in accordance with this Agreement and
the owner is not already a Borrower, then such owner may be added as a Borrower as required by Section 5.12 pursuant to a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F executed by such owner and delivered to the
Administrative Agent, and in each case Borrower, Guarantor, such owner and the Administrative Agent will enter into an amendment to the Environmental Indemnity. 

Section 9.03    Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a)        The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided
for herein, the preparation of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all mortgage taxes and other charges
incurred or required to be paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan Documents, (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iv) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel
for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters
of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred (including any Appraisal costs) during any waivers, workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 

(b)        The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank, and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this
Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan
or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in 

  
 86 







 
connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property
owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of law in a final non-appealable judgment, or the breach of this Agreement by the
Indemnitee, including without limitation, the failure of the Indemnitee to make advances pursuant to its Commitment in breach of its obligations hereunder. 

(c)        To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount
required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank,
or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense
or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, in its capacity as such. 

(d)        To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower
and each other Credit Party shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan, any Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e)        All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not
later than ten (10) days after written demand therefor. 
 Section 9.04    Successors and
Assigns. 
 (a)        (a) The provisions of this
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) except that the Borrower may
not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this
Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit)
and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

  
 87 







 (b)        (i) Subject
to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than to a natural Person, any Credit Party or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Credit Party) all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of: 

(A)        the Borrower, provided that (i) no consent of
the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, and (ii) such consent shall be deemed granted unless Borrower objects
within five (5) Business Days of a receipt of written notice of the proposed assignment; 

(B)        the Issuing Bank; and 

(C)        the Administrative Agent. 

Provided, no consent of the Borrower or Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank shall be required in connection
with any assignment to an entity acquiring, or merging with, a Lender. 

(ii)        Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions: 
 (A)        except in the case of an assignment to a
Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of
the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000.00 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no
such consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; 

(B)        each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of
a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 

(C)        the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver
to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.00; and 

(D)        the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

  
 88 







 For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term
“Approved Fund” has the following meaning: 
 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than
a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a
Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 

(iii)        Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,
2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such
Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 

(iv)        The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an
agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the
Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v)        Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and
Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph
(b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

  
 89 







 (c)        Any Lender
may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender, or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall not be increased. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation
shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such
Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d) of this
Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph
(b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each
Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that, except in the case of a Participant
asserting any right of set-off pursuant to Section 9.08, no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(d)        A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with
the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Lead Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such
Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender. 

  
 90 







 (e)        Any Lender
may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section
shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 Section 9.05    Survival.   All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and each other Credit Party herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon
by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and
effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or
terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

Section 9.06    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Joint and Several. 

(a)        This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. 

(b)        This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with
respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject
matter hereof. 
 (c)        Except as provided in
Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of
each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

(d)        The Guarantor and each Person constituting the Borrower
shall be bound jointly and severally with one another to make, keep, observe and perform the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities imposed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents upon the
“Borrower” or any other Credit Party. 

  
 91 







 (e)        Each Credit
Party agrees that it shall never be entitled to be subrogated to any of the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s, or any Lender’s rights against any Credit Party or other Person or any collateral or offset rights held by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Lenders for payment of the Loans or reimbursement of LC Disbursement until the full and final payment of the Loans and all LC Disbursements, the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, and
the full and final payment of all other obligations incurred under the Loan Documents and final termination of the Lenders’ obligations, if any, to make further advances under this Agreement or to provide any other financial accommodations to
any Credit Party. The value of the consideration received and to be received by each Credit Party is reasonably worth at least as much as the liability and obligation of each Credit Party incurred or arising under the Loan Documents. Each Credit
Party has determined that such liability and obligation may reasonably be expected to substantially benefit each Credit Party directly or indirectly. Each Credit Party has had full and complete access to the underlying papers relating to the Loans
and the Letters of Credit and all of the Loan Documents, has reviewed them and is fully aware of the meaning and effect of their contents. Each Credit Party is fully informed of all circumstances which bear upon the risks of executing the Loan
Documents and which a diligent inquiry would reveal. Each Credit Party has adequate means to obtain from each other Credit Party on a continuing basis information concerning such other Credit Party’s financial condition, and is not depending on
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or the Lenders to provide such information, now or in the future. Each Credit Party agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, nor any of the Lenders shall have any obligation to
advise or notify any Credit Party or to provide any Credit Party with any data or information regarding any other Credit Party. 

(f)        Keepwell Each Credit Party that is a Qualified ECP
Party at the time that this Agreement becomes effective with respect to any Hedging Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to
time by each other Credit Party that is not then an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act (a “Specified Credit Party”) to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents in respect of Hedging Obligations (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Party’s obligations and undertakings under this
Section 9.06(f) voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Party under this Section shall remain in full
force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Each Qualified ECP Party intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a
“keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Specified Credit Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act. 

  
 92 







 Section 9.07    Severability.   Any
provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 9.08    Right of Setoff.   If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits of any Borrower (general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final), at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Credit Party against any of and all the obligations of the Credit
Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.
Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees promptly to notify the Lead Borrower after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and the Issuing Bank under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or the Issuing Bank may have. 

Section 9.09    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 

(a)        This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 

(b)        The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally

heard and determined in such State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by
suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing choice of law: 

(i)        matters relating to the creation, perfection, priority and
enforcement of the liens on and security interests in a Mortgaged Property or other assets situated in another jurisdiction(s), including by way of illustration, but not in limitation, actions for foreclosure, for injunctive relief, or for the
appointment of a receiver, shall be governed by the laws of such state; 

  
 93 








(ii)        Administrative Agent shall comply with applicable law in
such state to the extent required by the law of such jurisdiction(s) in connection with the foreclosure of the security interests and liens created under the Deed of Trust or exercising any rights with respect to the Mortgaged Property directly, and
the other Loan Documents with respect to the Mortgaged Property or other assets situated in another jurisdiction; and 

(iii)        provisions of Federal law and the law of such other
jurisdiction(s) shall apply in defining the terms Hazardous Materials, Environmental Laws and Legal Requirements applicable to the Mortgaged Property as such terms are used in this Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity and the other Loan Documents

 (c)        Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in any such court. 
 (d)        Each party to this
Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law. 
 Section 9.10    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.   EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY
OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 Section 9.12    Confidentiality.   Each
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents,
including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential),
(b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with
the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to
any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; provided that such prospective assignee or participant shall agree to destroy or return all such Information
if it does not become a Lender or Participant hereunder, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes
available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Credit Party relating to the
Credit Party or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party or subsequently becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a disclosure of such information by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender; provided that, in the case of information received from any Credit Party after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

Section 9.13    Interest Rate Limitation.   If at any time there exists a maximum
rate of interest which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lenders in accordance with applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), then notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time the interest
applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed such Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable in
respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been paid in respect of such Loan but were not payable as
result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to the Lenders in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together
with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by the Lenders. If, for any reason whatsoever, the Charges paid or received on the Loans produces a rate which exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
Lenders shall credit against the principal of the Loans (or, if such indebtedness shall have been paid in full, shall refund to the payor of such Charges) such portion of said Charges as shall be necessary to cause the interest paid on the Loans to
produce a rate equal to the Maximum Rate. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holders of the Loans for the use, forbearance or detention of the 

  
 95 







 
Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in equal parts throughout the full term of this Agreement, so that the interest rate is
uniform throughout the full term of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section shall control all agreements, whether now or hereafter existing and whether written or oral, between the parties hereto. Without notice to the Borrower or any other
person or entity, the Maximum Rate, if any, shall automatically fluctuate upward and downward as and in the amount by which such maximum nonusurious rate of interest permitted by applicable law fluctuates. 

Section 9.14    USA PATRIOT Act.   Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that
pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender
to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. 
 Section 9.15    Fiduciary
Duty/No Conflicts. 
 The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely
for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lender Parties”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or
otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender Party, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other. The Credit
Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lender Parties, on the
one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders
or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender Party has advised, is currently advising or will
advise any Credit Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (y) each Lender Party is acting hereunder solely as
principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it
deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender Party has rendered advisory
services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto in its capacity as a Lender Party.
